I posted the following on the TRK thread but figured it was relevant for this thread also. It's from a newsletter I received, dated Feb 20. * Bruton Smith, CEO of Speedway Motorsports Inc., did not deny this week that he might be interested in buying or taking control of Las Vegas Motor Speedway, which has lost its racing management team. Word yesterday, however, was that NASCAR's International Speedway Corporation may be looking at owning or managing the property. That would be an important step for ISC chief Bill France. Smith has run circles around ISC in the past couple of years, buying and building tracks in major markets, leading some to believe Smith (he denies this) would start a rival series. France was noncommittal, saying only that NASCAR would send some of its officials to Las Vegas to help run and promote the Busch race there next month. As for anything else, he told the Richmond Times-Disapatch: ''From the Speedway Corporation's standpoint, our long-range position plans, we don't discuss that. We don't confirm or deny or anything on rumors.''
